Ever since I broke up w/ my ex in the early 90's I have experienced a problem with pre interview anxiety. If a place is to far away I will Not even go there. It just seems pointless to get my hopes and dreams up only to have them shot down as quickly as they rose up. I hate not being able to accept a job or an interview if I feel its just to complicated of a commute to even attend an interview or a weeks training in an area 4 cities away and through a big tunnel somewhere in a lil yuppy town far and away from my lil dwelling place in HerenNowville,USA. I just feel so frustrated. I almost went to an interview but at the last minute they added a 5 page online application that was not there originally. Then I just realized that it's just another way to discriminate, as I don't have a fancy computer set up at home to print out every document that is emailed to me. I already had completed several online apps related to that 1 job and was very disappointed that after doing a map quest and figuring out how to get to my interview, they then threw a fast ball at me and the app essentially wanted to know why they should hire me and Not someone else for the job ? well, they invited me to the interview based on my Original online application info. Many sites that i use for my career searches have a detailed application we must complete before it sends out our app to these employers whom we apply to. I am just kind of afraid of ID theft these days,m and seem to worry when after all that online info is already completed then I don't care to have to share my Dr Lic # or my SS #, or any other personal info that I already completed online. The company online is a trusted company w/ a reputation. But some of these people who use my online career web site to recruit I think are asking a bit much of us job applicants. Why cant they have their app upfront when we apply originally online like Macy's or JC Penny's does, or any established company. They just add red tape to more red tape and it's quite exhausting to be agoraphobic and then have more demands put on me when I am in the process of already going out of my way to make it to an interview, that just becomes a full blown case of anxiety over friggen extraneous red tape, as if I were applying to damn Harvard University or someting complicated!!!!!
